C= 6.7

A^2 + B^2 = C^2
6^2 + 3^2 = C^2
36+9 = 45
Square root 45 = 6.7

Round each decimal to the nearest whole number 30.92

Serhud [2]

It would be 31. 31 is a whole number. since 0.91 is close to 1. We would round it to 31 because of that.

You know that in a specific population of rainbow trout 15% of the individuals carry intestinal parasites. Assume you obtain a r

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

a) 0.2316 = 23.16% probability that 0 carry intestinal parasites.

b) 0.4005 = 40.05% probability that at least two individuals carry intestinal parasites.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each trout, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they carry intestinal parasites, or they do not. Trouts are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

You know that in a specific population of rainbow trout 15% of the individuals carry intestinal parasites.

This means that $p = 0.15$

Assume you obtain a random sample of 9 individuals from this population:

This means that $n = 9$

a. Calculate the probability that __ (last digit of your ID number) carry intestinal parasites.

Last digit is 0, so:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.15)^{0}.(0.85)^{9} = 0.2316$

0.2316 = 23.16% probability that 0 carry intestinal parasites.

b. Calculate the probability that at least two individuals carry intestinal parasites.

This is

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)$

In which

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.15)^{0}.(0.85)^{9} = 0.2316$

$P(X = 1) = C_{9,1}.(0.15)^{1}.(0.85)^{8} = 0.3679$

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.2316 + 0.3679 = 0.5995$

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.5995 = 0.4005$

0.4005 = 40.05% probability that at least two individuals carry intestinal parasites.
